Rising Intonations – And the Emotions They Reveal (Video)

In this week’s video, I discuss a distinct vocal pattern that we all use, but seldom consider…intonation.

When you train your ear to IDENTIFY vocal patterns, you will notice patterns in others, but more importantly, you can bring awareness to your own.
